GCDS

Treat it as glued rather than sewn, because most set stones are heat-bonded to the fabric. Turn the piece inside out and wash it cold on a delicate cycle inside a mesh bag, or hand wash it, and never tumble dry, since heat is what releases the adhesive. Skip the iron entirely over decorated areas and steam from a distance instead. Store flat rather than crushed on a rail so stones cannot snag neighbours.

Mostly, provided you keep them out of heat. Cropped shapes are knitted short by design rather than cut down, so the ribbed hem holds its position; what changes the length is a hot wash or a tumble dryer, which shrinks the body and lifts the hem further than intended. Wash cool and dry flat. Stretch blends relax slightly across a day of wear and recover once washed.
